“The violence is there with other drugs, but we don’t see the homicides associated with other narcotics as we do with marijuana,” said Anoka County Sheriff’s Lt. Wayne Heath, commander of the Anoka-Hennepin Narcotics and Violent Crimes Task Force. “No one knows why in marijuana it leads to that extra step.”

“It’s not the job of the state government to create conditions in which private companies can be profitable for selling marijuana.” Therefore regulate marijuana like it was a medicine with strict guidelines similar to the FDA process!
